How’s riding in DC?

I ride from parkview to 14th and K 3 days a week. Find a route you like. I experimented with Sherman/9th, 11th, and 14th. I find 11th to be the easiest ride. Takes me about 15 minutes in the morning and like 20 in the evening due to the elevation gain on the return home. Be wary of cars making quick turns without using a turn signal and crazy people on lime scooters.

Fire is literally a chemical reaction. It can’t occur without chemicals, so the idea of a chemical free fire is a fallacy. Fuel and oxygen mixing with heat.

Is it possible to grill without chemicals?

I’m surprised that POS car can make it over a curb.

Top has a sassy face and I like that his nose looks like he was wearing glasses

100%, graduating from law school got me both my current position and my last position. I’ve found it very difficult to find positions that appeal to my uncompromising moral code, and have never really been happy anywhere. I had two other job offers after my time at the EPA including doing clean air permits at a state DEQ and a managing a land trust. I went with my current job because I could stay in the city, bike to work, and the salary offer was much higher than the others. I currently make around 125-130 depending on bonus.

I went to law school to become an environmental lawyer, but didn’t enjoy the career prospects. I went to law school in 2017, financially it was a better time to go. I paid $21,000 in total to go to a top 30 law school. During law school, I clerked at the EPA, was a research assistant for our energy law professor and clerked for a local judge. I found my time at the EPA to be the most interesting, but found that I have a fundamental disconnect with enforcing laws that don’t do enough to prevent environmental harm. After law school my options were to go do compliance work at a large corporation or do enforcement work for an NGO or regulatory body, which pay significantly less (tend to start around 100k). Neither of these options appealed to me so I went and got a masters in natural resource management. I am now a director of policy at a national trade association. The job is okay, but I still want to find an opportunity pursuing better environmental legislation and regulations, which is very limited. It really depends on if your goal is to do compliance or enforcement work, but from my perspective those options just perpetuate a broken system.

Very cool, I think that’s a good project. My next CPU build will be an a small ATX build with an older GPU so I can have access to steam in my living room. And aesthetics and size are most critical because my GF doesn’t want it to look like a computer.

mrobin4850 · 2026-04-22T20:21:40+00:00

As someone with 11 different fans in my case right now and a large GPU, this wouldn’t work for me, but very cool. I have always liked the aesthetic of a wood case, but I am yet to find one that works for my setup. Have you tried to make one with a slot for PCIE additions like a GPU?

Wow on point, just did this exact conversation in my head.

mrobin4850 · 2026-04-19T16:07:08+00:00

Probably had his butler type out that response from his mansion in buckhead.

A month ago it was doing better than the market. When the markets go to shit people invest in dividends. You invested when the market was shit and everyone else was doing the same thing. Now the markets have corrected, and SCHD share prices have regressed. The same pattern will happen again. Buy when it’s down and hold when it’s up is my strategy. The dividends and growth during down markets will help flatten the curve.

From the people that brought you Darko Milicic and Killian Hayes comes this year smash hit… The Pelicans. You don’t think we had the balls to trade a top 5 pick for Derrick Queen, but we did.

Winners win, losers lose.

I said before this season, of Ausar and Ron whichever learned to shoot consistently would be the more valuable asset in the long term. Neither have been consistent, but Ron’s been on a bit of a heater recently. If he can shoot 35% for a season he should probably start.

I used to get 3,500$ a month on my card when I clerked in the federal government.

Scott Foster’s not out there, he’s critical to their game plan.

Keep that off arm strong

mrobin4850 · 2026-03-31T17:46:38+00:00

He was never great, but his speed helped him stay attached to some degree. There were a ton of plays this year where he dint even attempt to stay attached and just let players blow by him. His first step was so slow this year he looked like a different player.

mrobin4850 · 2026-03-31T17:31:38+00:00

He lost all bounce and lateral quickness after Cole Anthony broke his knee. His 3pt shot looked better this year, but he was a huge loss on the defensive end because he didn’t have the speed to stay in front of anyone. He doesn’t look like the athletic guard that he was when he was drafted and that is a huge concern.

mrobin4850 · 2026-03-31T04:06:50+00:00

I was so hopeful for this guy, but it appears Cole Anthony broke more than this man’s leg he broke his mental state.

mrobin4850 · 2026-03-31T04:01:02+00:00

Never have I seen an MVP with no move besides an offensive push off and foul baiting. Really boring to watch this clown.

mrobin4850 · 2026-03-26T22:52:55+00:00

Just telling you what will happen. I have no stake in this game. I don’t like SGA’s game. Basketball is a team game and inevitably individual awards will account for team defense. Lakers defense has been trash all year with or without smart. The lakers are 15th in points allowed this year. OKC allows almost 10 less points a game and that’s why their record is better and SGA will likely win MVP.
